Are they selling season tickets for next year yet. After being linked to about 400 players in January and getting some bloke from China on loan and a midfielder BBC Gossip column today has them in for:

Manchester United are planning a £160m swoop for Aston Villa's Jack Grealish, 24, and Leicester City and England midfielder James Maddison, 23, this summer
Manchester United are determined to beat Chelsea in the £120m battle to sign Borussia Dortmund and England forward Jadon Sancho, 19
Manchester United could revive their interest in Lyon's 23-year-old French striker Moussa Dembele in the summer.
Napoli and Belgium striker Dries Mertens, 32, is increasingly likely to move on a free transfer in the summer - with Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal all vying for his signature
Chelsea will face competition for Ziyech's signature from Arsenal and Manchester United who are both interested in a summer move for the winger
Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool and Atletico Madrid are all interested in Verona and Albania defender Marash Kumbulla, 20
Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United are interested in signing 17-year-old, 6ft 4in England youth goalkeeper Brad Young from Hartlepool

that all means they probably make the guy from China into a permanent transfer :)-

It would also be shit for the overall PL product driving down the talent pool and lowering the standard of football so that rich teams currently lying in 7th or 8th place, for example, would be elevated into the top 4 without a commensurate improvement in product. And no-one would want that.

Well maybe the teams lying in 7th and 8th would like it and all those below might fancy a general dumbing down of the product

All clubs will know that the rules are likely to change due to Brexit, and how they are likely to change won't be much of a surprise to anyone. The idea that the FA would brief one club is pretty ludicrous.

If Utd want to blow a huge amount on Grealish and Maddison, they still won't have a proper centre forward or right wing, will have yet another left side attacker, and will have to offload some biggish names; Maddison would help their team though. It's agent talk because there is no actual football to report.

The rags don’t have a proper left-back, nor right-back. They don’t have a proper defensive midfielder and there are questions about whether they have a proper goalkeeper and centre-back.

I can’t possibly imagine which team you might be talking about.
